Time flies so fast, It is just the matter of a wink…It was just yesterday that we were small kids going to school, chatting and chirping with so much energy that came from mysterious sources!….We had so much to talk to and so much to share….I was born and brought up in a small town of UP…..I have so many fond memories of that place….I think the place you have shared your childhood with, is the best place on earth for everyone….My grandparents also used to live in the same town and so every now and then we were visiting them…..There were a lot of cousins to play with…We used to arrange doll marriages and my grand mother happily arranged for the food for the dolls wedding…My aunts used to stich new cloths for our dolls….

And see now my kid is of that same age…Full of energy….Always ready to jump and always nagging to eat….

Coming to the today’s recipe….These Calzones are easy to make and you can make the stuffing of your choice….You can make the dough in advance and freeze it….Just thaw it to room temperature before making and you are good to go….

Dissolve yeast in warm waterAdd sugar, oil, salt and mixAdd half the flour and mixAdd the remaining flour and knead the dough for 5-6 mins on a floured surfaceThe dough should be smooth and elasticCover and keep aside for an hour

In a pan , add oilAdd onion, broccoli and mushroomAdd saltCook covered for 5 mins on medium heatRemove from heat and add cream cheese and mozzarellaMix

Pre heat the oven to375 degreesDivide the dough in 8-9 equal ballsRoll the dough on a lightly floured surfacePut one tbsp of filling on the half of the rolled dough and fold the dough over the fillingPinch to seal the edgesI used forks tines to seal the edgesWith a sharp knife, make small cuts on the surface of the calzonesPlace the calzones on a baking dishBrush with egg washBake for 20-25 mins till golden brownServe hot with ketchup

These tastes best straight out of the oven….You can make the filling and dough in advance and then the only job left is to roll and bake these goodies….You can also try whole wheat flour instead of maida which will make them healthier…BTW how is my blog looking with this new font?????????????

Remembered my childhood days reading your post…I remeber even we had doll bday parties & mom was in charge of baking an actual cake!!! Then the ‘dolls’ were made to cut the cake & sis & i happily enjoyed whole of the cake!!!
